I recently got a 770 on WOOT and love it.
This thread has been very helpful, but my problem seems the opposite of most of the posts.
I have no problem at all with public wi-fi. At home on my Mac Mini I cannot get online via Airport. I would like to do this to load software, etc.
I have no problem getting a "local IP" connection which seems to be useless.
I tried the suggestion of manually typing in an IP and DNS address. Again, I get a connection but opening a browser gives a network error.
Two issues may be relevant. 1-My mouse and keyboard are wireless so I cannot turn off bluetooth. 2- My DSL connection is shared via a d-link hub.
I wonder if I am not using the correct IP and DNS info.
Any suggestions on things I can check? I have tried most of the channel choices in Airport setup, as well as auto.
I"m unix illiterate but I can follow directions. :-/

Did you enable SSL2 in the web browser settings? I had the same problem with my home router until I corrected that.

Well. when I assigned the IP, gateway and DNS munually , the connect to my router is ok and I can visit the configure page for the router by 770. But incredible thing happened, I still can not browse the web.....rightly, the router works normally and my other wireless device can get the web smoothly.
Drive me crazy.....My neighbor would close his wireless AP every 10pm...
Just to be clear here. Are you looking for advice on how to steal something?

Just wanted to contribute my 2 cents worth of experience while trying to get my N800 connect to my Linksys WRT54g router running DD-WRT. I've been having this link local problem ever since, but have been really puzzled why it simply wouldn't work. So experimenting with various wifi settings on the router, I noticed that if I used simply "TKIP" for my WPA2 instead of "TKIP+AES" it works perfectly!

After many months of the occasional "connected with link-local IP" on my home network with my N800, all of a sudden I cannot get the @$$##$#@! thing to connect properly. I've rebooted everything involved a couple of times and I'm totally stumped. I hanv't installed or upgraded anything in days...
